# Garuda Linux
2+
3+
A professionally assembled operating system based on Arch Linux, with variants including Hyprland.
4+
5+
6+
## Thunar file manager
7+
8+
Thunar is the default file manager in Garuda Linux Hyprland.
9+
10+
Thunar can be used to access shared filespace across the network using SFTP.
11+
12+
```shell
13+
sftp://practicalli@rangerone/home/practicalli
14+
```
15+
16+
A prompt appears to enter the user's password.
17+

### Window rules
20+
21+
Thunar dialogs show as a full size tiled window, taking up a disproportionate amount of space.
22+
23+
A cleaner desktop is achived by setting window rules to show dialogs as a floating windows. Optionally moving the windows to the mouse cursor position or to a suitable position on the current screen.
24+
25+
The Rename dialog should keep focus even if the mouse is not hovering over the dialog. The focus will change if the mouse is moved to another window though.
26+
27+
Center the Rename dialog on the mouse will minimise focus being lost if the mouse is moved slightly.
28+
29+
30+
!!! NOTE "Thunar Rename dialog: Center on mouse cursor"
31+
```Configure
32+
windowrule = float,stayfocused,move cursor -50% -50%,class:^(thunar)$,title:(Rename.*)$
33+
```
34+
35+
The File Operations Progress
36+
37+
!!! NOTE "Thunar File Operations: float and move to bottom left corner"
38+
```Configure
39+
windowrule = float,class:^(thunar)$,title:(File Operation Progress.*)$
40+
windowrule = move onscreen 100%-24 100%-24,class:^(thunar)$,title:(File Operation Progress.*)$
41+
```
42+
```
